National Adult Literacy Database

In June 2005, the Canadian Council on Learning (CCL) held a Health and Learning Knowledge Centre (HLKC) consultation in Vancouver, British Columbia. At the consultation, participants agreed to establish six working groups to address the work of HLKC. These working groups address life stages in health and learning and concentrate on settings, places, and communities where health and learning takes place.

The purpose of the Health and Learning Environmental Scan:2006 is to identify current knowledge initiatives and knowledge dissemination vehicles related to health and adult learning. The Scan focuses on the three central themes of the HLKC and the five priority areas of the adult working groups. The Scan also includes an appendix of important recommendations for the future and other information generated by participants before, during, and after the HLKC Vancouver Consultation in June 2005.
